[QUOTE="NightShade, post: 2882563, member: 29706"] Yep, it's too easy to build the racks yourself. Built out a bunch for a guy when I was working in Davenport, IA. Can't remember his real last name but his stage name was J.D. Addison. Anyway he bought the pipe and cut it himself and bought the lumber to make the plugs and was able to pay the lumber yard to cut them all out for less than he could buy the tooling and time to do it. Glued and nailed two together then put them in the bottom of the tube and stapled them in place. Racks were 2x4 bottoms and 1x4 sides. We had a few people putting them together but one guy making the plugs another cutting the pipe a third putting the plugs in the pipe and a fourth putting the rack together. We cranked one out about every ten minutes and made about 100 while I was there plus the stuff they already had done before I showed up for around 400 racks total. As far as someone who sells commercial stuff my google fu brought up [URL]http://www.hancefireworks.com/[/URL] or since Joplin isn't too awful far [URL]http://redrhinofireworks.com/[/URL] or [URL]http://www.blackmarketfireworks.com/[/URL] otherwise your next best bet may be [URL]https://www.waldfireworks.com/[/URL] but that will require a drive to the Kansas City area.
